Yeah, I'll freely admit I'm a curmudgeon with respect to technology "upgrades", but we've really lost a lot of solid reliability in our phone systems (landlines at least) Now it feels like an afterthought compared t

Did you post the essay anywhere? I've always had kind of a soft spot for Ted--not his actions, mind, but his manifesto raises some rather prescient ideas. I also think he was..."justified" in a sense; again, not in his action

Not part of this, but that's not really called for. It just seems you two have different experiences from possibly different countries is all.

I don't mean to be pedantic, but not always --see the recent DigiCert delayed revocation issues. I will admit it is rare though and more often than not, you (should) know when your certs are going to expire.
